Darkness Has Fallen is the first collection of poems written to express a journey through the darkest of times. An expression of thoughts, feelings and emotions, during grief, complex post traumatic disorder, chronic fatigue and PMDD.

They are real and raw - just how it felt at the time. *WARNING - some may trigger*Have you been through something that broke your heart, devastates your life or something that caused you a lot of trauma?I have and that sent me into a a very long dark chapter in my life - a dark night of the soul.

I didn't do well or process my grief and trauma, which over time, caused disorders and chronic illnesses. So, I started to write poems, which has been like therapy for me, along with other therapies and healthy/holistic life-style changes.

The whole time I felt very alone in this dark chapter because I believed or thought I was the only one - it felt like it at the time. And that nobody would or could understand what I was going through.

Now I'm sharing the poems that I wrote to help others that are going through the same or similar, so others know - they are not alone. I have wrote about the disorders/chronic illnesses - complex post traumatic disorder, chronic fatigue, PMDD and grief in my Dark Night series of poetry books.
